PREFACE. 

In the preparation of this little work I have endeav- 
ored to accomplish the following- : 

I. To combine simplicity with accnracy, and at the 
same time to be thorongh, making mention of all events 
mentioned in school histories. 

II. By consultino- different histories to inclnde all 
events worthy of mention thns avoiding the confnsion 
arising- from the nse of various histories in class. 

III. To furnish merely an outline of the subject to 
be filled out by such books as the student may be able to 
procure. 

IV. To provide a series of diagrams to be written on 
the blackboard, as far as possible from memory, thus es- 
tablishing dates and events in the mind and enabling the 
student to recite from memory, making use of the brief 
outlines written on the board instead of reciting by ques- 
tions and answers. 

That it will accomplish these few objects is the wish 

of the 

AUTHOR.
